It allows me to easily buy things local businesses may not be capable or willing to make. I can get Korean Milkis at Costco, and Brazilian Guaraná Antarctica at Amazon which is rad. UK estim machine. Japanese Calbee shrimp chips (garlic get the garlic). All the necessary things in life from around the world can be ordered from the comfort of my home. Oh and to be clear I don't care if it "destroys your culture" all hail our lord capitalism! If your culture can't adapt to make room for all consuming consumption than maybe it isn't worth existing?

Oh and less wars thanks to the economies being intertwined is probably a good thing. Well maybe not, less war means less customers for guns and stuff and as an American that's probably bad? Right?

That's why we have to make up wars in Ukraine and stuff. That Raytheon stock isn't going to inflate itself.

Well you'd think you'd be able to get something similar but Americans are really loving stupid and if you say something like "they have to wait so long for necessary surgery, besides out healthcare is best in the world!" They will be like "oh man that sounds terrible good thing we're best in the world". The Fox News echo chamber is very powerful.

edit: That's not fair while Americans are really loving stupid I think it's more so the fact that people in general are loving stupid than any American exceptionalism. World wide stupidity, although we might be the source.

Leave poor globalism alone and blame people for loving. Well the loving isn't so much the problem as all the people generated by it. More loving less people free vasectomies for all!

It’s actually very important for humanity’s next step. This multi-country bullshit we are doing isn’t sustainable. Humanity needs a strong centralized government with weak regional power hubs. The federal central government supports each geographic region in addition to global objectives. Single army, single police force, world wide healthcare.

We waste inordinate amounts of money on redundancy that would be allocated throughout the worlds economy.

If there is one thing we should hope to see in our lifetimes, it’s the unification of countries beginning.

Invade a country not in the UN, veto consequences agreed by everyone else as you did a war bad. Country wins!

A new UN, ruled by the people via Liquid Democracy irregardless of borders, surely that would make everything worse, meritocracy doesn't improve anything :iiam: :pirate:

In the beginning part of your post you are just talking about importing and exporting. Globalism is taki g your job and paying a Chinese "worker" (slave) to do it 90% cheaper and more efficient but also mostly lovely and perhaps more dangerously.

The person in this analogy doesn't have to be a Chinese slave. Basically any poor person can be a slave.

Thank u for attending my ted talk.

quote:

Globalism refers to various patterns of meaning beyond the merely international. It is used by political scientists, such as Joseph Nye, to describe "attempts to understand all the interconnections of the modern world—and to highlight patterns that underlie them." While primarily associated with world-systems, it can be used to describe other global trends. The concept of globalism is also classically used to distinguish the ideologies of globalization from the processes of globalization. In this sense, globalism is to globalization what nationalism is to nationality.

quote:

1. the operation or planning of economic and foreign policy on a global basis

I know I know words have meaning and it's better to rush into a thread to try and correct someone than to take the time to see what the actual definition is.

You're right I didn't include every continent in my list of 4 things. I tried Dudu Osun soap and while it cleaned well I think it was too harsh for me. I suspect you think Africa needs even more globalism, that's why you brought it up right?

edit: Dudu Osun is Nigerian.
